Welcome! My passion as a therapist is rooted in helping others recognize and fulfill their potential, while navigating life’s inevitable challenges. I view going to therapy as a chance to be “selfish” in a world where we are often consumed with fulfilling obligations outside of ourselves. Therapy is an opportunity for clients to invest in themselves, take time to process their feelings, and reflect upon events in their lives. My approach as a therapist leans heavily on evidence based practices, and is tailored towards the individual needs of each client.

Our relationships deeply influence our lives, and when there's tension in out most important connections, it can affect every aspect of our well-being. I recognize the significance of resolving relationship stress and the care and patience it requires. Together, we can develop the tools for better communication, stronger support, and healthier, more fulfilling connections.

I became a therapist because I believe people can do hard things, especially with the right support alongside them. I work with children, teens, and young adults who deserve for someone to meet them where they are at, and empower them to make positive change. I also believe therapy for children and teens is best done with the whole child and whole family in mind, and can provide family sessions as needed.

If you can relate, please understand that you do not need to feel this way. Is it time to create a new life path, or new way of thinking? You can do this through the utilization of learned strategies that will help you to create the life you wish to achieve.

Feeling like your emotions control you instead of the other way around? Maybe you go from feeling everything all at once to feeling completely numb. Depression drains your energy, making even the smallest tasks feel overwhelming. You might struggle with relationships-fearing rejection, feeling misunderstood, or pushing people away you don't want to. Maybe past trauma still lingers, making it hard to trust others or even trust yourself. Your mental health might be affecting your relationships, work, ect. Therapy is a space to make sense of your emotions, break free from painful patterns, and to start feeling like yourself again.

When you’re around others, you wear a mask and pretend everything is okay. Beneath the surface, you feel a churning of discomfort, disconnect, and detachment from the people and the world around you. Sometimes, you feel so internally overwhelmed that you go numb. When you’re alone, the psychic pain sets in and your whole being surges with anxiety. You feel lost and like you’re drowning. The persistent feelings of loneliness and isolation are soul crushing. Life has lost its spark, and you are alone in the dark. You can’t calm down because being calm means you’re too vulnerable. You can’t imagine a different future.

Are you here because you feel overwhelmed, stuck, and often at odds with yourself? Because – despite feeling desperate to feel something different – you find yourself in the same old patterns? Replaying painful memories, worries or harsh self-talk? Maybe people, even therapists, have commented on your self-awareness. But that doesn't seem to translate to feeling better. Maybe you've tried breathwork or yoga and they helped. But you can't shake the feeling that there's more to explore on your healing path. I'm here for folks looking to follow that wild call to look inward.
